Below is a translation from the fifth book of the "Collection" of the
Greek mathematician Pappus of Alexandria, who lived in the beginning of
the fourth century AD. The earliest surviving manuscript of this work
dates from the tenth century and is identified as Codex Vaticanus Graecus
218. A photograph of a pair of pages from this manuscript can be
downloaded from a Web site of the Library of Congress Vatican Exhibit (205
kilobytes, 1685 x 1249 pixels).
This manuscript gives the first known mention of the thirteen "Archimedean
solids", which Pappus lists and attributes to Archimedes. The figures in
the translation below and the modern names under them do not appear in
Pappus's manuscript. These figures were taken, with permission, from a
World Wide Web site maintained by Tom Gettys . This site contains much
interesting information about polyhedral solids and their geometrical and
practical construction. The translation begins . . .

Pappus' Theorem is a major result in projective geometry. I have
discovered a construction involving several interlocking applications of
Pappus' theorem that has several very nice properties that make it an
interesting construction to study. I am nearly finished writing up the
results in a paper entitled "From Pappus' Theorem to the Twisted Cubic."
This paper explains this construction then investigates it heavily.
